Tolo enjoying endurance training
Well, not much to say about last month. Some horrible weather (for climbing) gave away for a couple of days of very nice skiing so some leg muscles have been added. The tourist season is on and our guests are starting to arrive as well as plenty of requests from groups for kick-offs and conferences. We are working with one group of 100 people for November, if we land that deal it will be, well, it will be amazing. It seems that we indeed will be able to live from our little travel agency!
Climbing wise I don’t really remember much so I guess I haven’t done anything in particular. Training is going OK, it is fun and I’m feeling strong. Fingers OK, energy levels high, learn a little more about food every week and try to adopt it. Sticking with stretching to maintain the little extra flexibility that I gained this year, something that also has removed most of my back pain and the pain I got from running. So this week I’ve done 21 hilly kilometers in the mountains here around, next week I will try to run a similar distance.
Feels a little odd that the high season for visiting climbers is my off season but I feel very little stress about this, next couple of months I will try to train as much as possible and enjoy the days of rock that I have time for. Then this summer it slows down a little and maybe I can go outside more. Knowing that good climbing is close by and available is finally not so stressing but a good thing. 🙂
Well, after a weekend in the wine district of Penedès with a group of 25 Swedes – visiting bodegas, trying cava and red wine, biking and walking – it’s time for a visit to dear McPlaf. Maybe try to spend some time on the climbing treadmill?
